Read Explanation:

Water

  • World Water Day - 22nd of March.

  • World Watershed Day - 2nd February.

  • Earth is also known as the watery planet. It is called so because three-fourth of the earth's surface is covered with water.

  • As 71 percent of the earth's surface is covered with water, it appears to be a pale blue sphere when viewed from space.

  • Ice floats on water due to the decrease in density on freezing. This is why water is seen below the frozen surface of water bodies.

  • Earth is the only living planet in the solar system. It is believed that life originated in water.

  • It is inferred that in the solar system, water in liquid form exists only on the earth. Since 2/3 of the earth is covered by water, when you look at the earth from outer space it looks like a blue ball. The earth is also called the blue planet and the watery planet.

  • The theme for World Water Day 2024 was "Water for Peace".

  • We celebrate March 22 as World Water Day every year
